Background Information

The purpose of this contract with Supplemental Health Care (SHC) is to provide supplemental nursing coverage in the Gila County Jail when normal jail staff is unavailable.

The Gila County Sheriff's Office would like to contract with Supplement Health Care for nursing coverage needed in the jail, with a not to exceed the amount of $80,000.

Recommendation

Sheriff J. Adam Shepherd recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve a contract with Supplement Health Care to provide nursing coverage on an as-needed basis in the jail, with a not to exceed the amount of $80,000.
